NAME
wmforkplop - Monitors forking activity and displays top CPU consuming processes. SYNOPSIS
wmforkplop [options] DESCRIPTION
wmforkplop is a program that monitors the forking activity of the kernel and displays a list of the most CPU-consuming processes. Although primarily aimed at Windowmaker, it will run on any window manager, either as a dockapp or as a standard X11 application. Option list: -h, --help print this. -v, --verbose increase verbosity -V, --version print version --fontpath path add a new directory to the font search directory list default: --fontpath=/usr/share/fonts/truetype (and subdirectories) --fontpath=/usr/share/fonts/ttf (and subdirectories) --fontpath=$HOME/.fonts (and subdirectories) --font fontname/size Set the 'small font' name/size in pixel (default: --smallfont=Vera/6 The font name are case-sensitive, and must corre- spound to the name of a .ttf file which can be found in one of the fontpaths By default, wmforkplop tries to load the following fonts: * Vera/6, DejaVuSansMono/6, Andale_Mono/6, Verdana/6, Trebuchet_MS/7 -c n, --colormap=n select colormap number n (0 <= n <= 5) -g[=WxH+x+y], --geometry[=WxH+x+y] start in window (i.e. undocked) mode with specified geometry (i.e -g 96x32 or -g 64x64+0+0) --32, --48, --56 start in a reduced dockapp, for people whose dock is too small too contain 64x64 dockapps --no-top disable the wmtop feature, you will only see the fork animation. --no-fork disable the fork animation, you will only see the list of top processes. --threshold=n minimum CPU consumption (%) of a process listed in the top-list (default 3%) -u n, --proc-update-delay=n set the delay between two reads of /proc, the default is 150 (milliseconds). Setting a small value gives accurate results, but con- sumes more CPU as reading /proc is quite expensive. See /usr/share/doc/wmforkplop/README.gz for more details. AUTHOR

NAME
update-fonts-dir - compile fonts.dir files SYNOPSIS
update-fonts-dir [OPTION] directory ... DESCRIPTION
update-fonts-dir creates a fonts.dir file in an X font directory by invoking mkfontdir(1x) with the appropriate arguments. It is typically invoked only from the post-installation and post-removal scripts of a package containing fonts for the X Window System, but may be invoked at any time to reconstruct fonts.dir files. For each directory, which is simply the last component of its path (such as '75dpi' or 'misc'), update-fonts-dir will generate either /usr/lib/X11/fonts/directory/fonts.dir or /usr/share/fonts/X11/directory/fonts.dir from the fonts.scale and font files found within it. This enables multiple packages to provide names for fonts in the same directory. No font package actually provides the fonts.dir file in the X font directory itself, so there is no danger of overwriting one package's font names with those of another. For instance, the two packages 'xfonts-base' (real) and 'xfonts-nifty' (hypothetical) may both install fonts into the directory /usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc, and update-fonts-dir will ensure that the fonts.dir file in that directory contains information about the font files provided by both packages. The format of fonts.dir files is described in the mkfontdir(1x) manual page. An example of how to use update-fonts-dir in package maintainer scripts is provided in the Debian Policy Manual. OPTIONS
-h, --help displays a brief usage message and exits. -7, --x11r7-layout switches the font layout to the one introduced in X11R7: fonts in /usr/share/fonts/X11/directory (default is: fonts in /usr/lib/X11/fonts/directory) OPERANDS
update-fonts-dir takes one or more X font directory names to operate on as operands. Only the final path component of the directory name should be specified; e.g., update-fonts-dir 75dpi is correct, while 'update-fonts-dir /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi' and 'update-fonts-dir /usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi' are not. ENVIRONMENT
COLUMNS indicates the width of the terminal device in character cells. This value is used for formatting diagnostic messages. If not set, the terminal is queried using stty(1) to determine its width. If that fails, a value of '80' is assumed. DIAGNOSTICS
Errors usage error: one or more font directories must be provided update-fonts-dir was invoked without operands. Supply one or more X font directory names to operate on. usage error: unrecognized option update-fonts-dir was invoked with an unrecognized option argument. Use only the options documented in "OPTIONS", above. fatal error: path to X font directory must be used A directory name was supplied that was not an X font directory name. Supply X font directory names only. Warnings warning: absolute path directory was provided Usage of absolute paths is deprecated. Use only the final component of the X font directory name for directory. warning: directory does not exist or is not a directory The supplied directory was invalid. update-fonts-dir skipped it. EXIT STATUS
0 update-fonts-dir ran successfully. 1 update-fonts-dir experienced a fatal error; see the section on diagnostic messages above. 2 update-fonts-dir was invoked with invalid arguments. BUGS
